Welcome! We hope you enjoy reading about the Bichons and the people who love them!

If you missed our last newsletter, here it is.

We have the following new challenges for the "When it Rains, It Pours" Bichons who have been displaced due to storms or flooding in the south.

Now there are eight. Five from near St. Peter's MO. One near Conway Arkansas, and now, this pair from near Kansas City, MO.

11 year old Cuddles, female

9 year old Sparkles, Male

These are two additional boys, a bonded pair for nine years, who were abandoned at a vet's office near Kansas City, Mo.

We have a few new matching donations challenges and I need to issue an apology for missing one. Thank you Jim!

Jim from Iowa has this challenge for these Bichons in need. Thank you Jim!

I know it is not nearly enough, but it is what I can afford to do. Please issue a $100 challenge for the "When it Rains it Pours Bichons". If everyone took a hard look at what they could contribute, we wouldn't be in this situation. I don't want you to let even one of them get away. We can do better. Please give until it hurts, because the thought of even one suffering Bichon causes such distress. Thank you.

And this is from Kerry Ruffner. Thank you Kerry!

Since Mother's Day weekend is coming up, I would like to donate $25.00 in memory of my mother Carrie Ruffner who passed away in 1989 at the age of 67. She is still missed by all who loved her. I am hoping that others will donate in honor or memory of their mothers too. What a great way to honor them and to help Small Paws. The check will be in the mail tomorrow. Please use it for the "When it Rains it Pours" Bichons.

Kerry Ruffner>

Also, please remember Bonnie Ferguson's Mom, Helen, in your prayers.

Helen is 82 and has been diagnosed with Stage 4 Ovarian Cancer.

Bonnie moved her down here from New Jersey and Helen underwent a hysterectomy last Friday, here in Tulsa.

She is still hospitalized. Thanks so much for your prayers.

Ok, we are picking up the five in MO., tomorrow and moving them to the great state of Illinois.

Many thanks to Team Leaders Deb Fahey for MO., and Sara Pace for IN. and IL.

All My Love, Robin

Humphrey Sisco
Dec 26, 1993~ Aug 30, 2006

When I first saw this beautiful picture of Cheri Sisco's "Humphrey", I thought it was truly the epitome of what we do, and why we do it. I wanted to use this black and white picture of Humphrey, taken only days before his death due to congestive heart failure, to let those who may be new to Small Paws, know what we do and why we do it. Without Small Paws, Humphrey would have never known love. He would have died in a kill shelter, sick and alone. Because of Small Paws, and Cheri Sisco, he lived, he loved, and he smiled.
